OIL DECISIONS CLASH SHARPLY ON MAIN POINTS Crucial Points Decided Op-, positely in Doheny, Sinclair Lease CJases. Bil t'nifi'd Prrxs WASHINGTON, June 20.—Only the United States Supreme Court can bring; harmony out of the clashing decisions rendered by Federal Judges McCormick and Kennedy on vital, identical points in the Teapot Dome and Elk Hills oil lease cases. Bot hare certain to land In the high tribunal, the Doheny case by way of his own appeal and the Sinclair case thorugh appeal by the Government attorneys. ( One crucial point common to both cases was the legality of the executive order issued by President Harding, transferring administration of the naval oil reserves from the Navy Department to the Interior Department. Judge McCormick. in holding Doheny leases illegal, declared this order jvas in excess of the Presi dent’s potfer. Judge Kennedy hel* the order was legal, but immaterial. This is only a sample of the varying findings of act in the two cases. It is not customary for the higher Federal Courts to rule on findings ot fa cl in the lower courts as they usually testrict themselves to points of law, but such diametrically opposed findings will compel them to re-assess the evidence.
